Double Trouble by helenhall

Double Trouble

The examination of the electricity bill is a matter for great deliberation.

Increased usage and the end of a fixed deal contract has caused the monthly payment to double, and then double again.

It is hard for a tired and muddled head to make the necessary calculations to ensure that there is no fault in the billing. The figures just don't seem to compute.

It is one thing to come to understand these things for oneself, but to then explain them to another ....

But spring is around the corner, when the heat can be turned down, and we have done some tests and tracked down the 3 main culprits.
Great social portrait Helen

Fabulous strong capture. I know how you feel, I changed operator last year and it was hard to understand the calculations.

Some bills are so hard to understand! Great shot of the strong hands and the all so confusing numbers.

a poignant shot, as for the multiple tariff's and multiple suppliers, it is all a big con and don't get me started on these "price comparison websites" .... once upon a time we got our leccy from the leccy board !

I, too, am familiar with confusing bills and pages of calculations. Black and white adds to the emotion captured, and the lighting is superb. As others have said...strong, powerful image.
